Andalucía Trade Global 2026, the annual gathering for Andalusia’s international trade sector, opened company registration on its website. The event will take place on 17 and 18 November at the Málaga Conference and Exhibition Centre (Fycma), under the slogan “Boost Your Business Worldwide.” Representatives of the Andalucía Trade International Network in 76 countries across five continents are expected to travel to Málaga to brief participating companies on business opportunities and practices in their markets.
The event, now in its 22nd edition, is organised by the Regional Ministry of University, Industry, Energy and Innovation through Andalucía Trade. It is held in collaboration with the Confederation of Andalusian Employers (CEA), the Andalusian Council of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Services and Navigation, and ICEX-Spain Trade and Investment.
Andalucía Trade Global alternates between Seville and Málaga each year. It returns to Málaga after the 2024 edition, when a weather alert meant that its 1,175 business-to-business meetings had to be held online.
Registered companies and other interested professionals can request B2B meetings with representatives of the international network in the markets of interest to them. The platform assigns a day and time for an in-person meeting during the two-day event.
The event will also include an exhibition area where companies can learn about public support for foreign trade at the Andalusian public agency’s stand. Around 20 public and private organisations that provide internationalisation services will also have stands. They include the event’s partners, CEA, the Council of Chambers of Commerce and ICEX, as well as consultancies and logistics and financial organisations. Companies can arrange meetings with these organisations through the platform.
Andalucía Trade’s participation in the initiative is co-financed with European Union funds through the 2021–2027 Andalusia ERDF Operational Programme, which has an 85% EU contribution, or through another European programme eligible to co-finance the initiative.
This year’s programme has been expanded to include a preliminary internal working session between agency representatives and the Andalucía Trade International Network. The session will lay the groundwork for the 2027 activity schedule and present the public agency’s new lines of work to professionals.
